What happens when the life you've built suddenly breaks? And what if the breaking ends up setting you free?
In this episode of No More Mondays, Angie Callen speaks with Carol Lin — award-winning journalist, former CNN/ABC anchor, and author of When News Breaks: A Memoir of Love and War.
Carol spent decades reporting from war zones, natural disasters, and major national stories while quietly navigating exhaustion, misalignment, and a grief she did not yet have the tools to name. Her story reveals what breaking points show us, how identity is rebuilt, and why purpose often emerges from the hardest seasons of life.
This episode explores:
Early signs of burnout and misalignment
How grief became a source of wisdom and clarity
Rebuilding identity after loss
What breaking points reveal about who we are
Why aligned values matter more than external success
If you've ever experienced burnout, career disillusionment, grief, or the quiet knowing that something in your life needs to change, this conversation offers insight, grounding, and hope.
When News Breaks is available wherever books are sold.
